Good Morning, Quilters!

A quick review of a doodle challenge we first tried almost two years ago….

Glue a piece of your favorite fabric onto a sheet of paper.

Use the lines as inspiration and create your own design.  Continue some of the lines, echo other lines and mirror image some of the shapes.

This is a fun way to get your pen moving and enjoy your fabric scraps.

Work quickly–in other words, don’t think too much. Work intuitively.

If you have time, try a second fabric or stitch your design.

Better Quilting Through Doodling!

 

Happy Doodling!

Fare the well, fare the well…

    You said don’t think too much but I read, “Don’t drink too much.” Both good advice. Ha.
